Pros:
Always convenient, professional and affordable. I love them! I one rented from Budget and had the most horrible experience. Budget was rude and expensive. That experience reaffirmed my commitment to Enterprise and I haven't looked back since. I highly recommend Enterprise and will happily continue to use their services.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
I very much liked my car; it was in great shape, got the best gas mileage Ive ever seen & it was comfy for my long road trip. Oh yeah & I think I looked pretty hip driving in the Chevy Spark ;) Overall I couldnt have been more pleased!!Cons:
There was not a single thing I didnt like; I mean, lets be honest, Id always appreciate an even cheaper deal on the car but I felt like I still got a grand deal & the peace of mind I had on the road while driving the chevy spark was priceless :)One location in Carbondale

Cons:
I had prepaid for a rental car two weeks in advance, and there was an additional $200 down payment that I was not aware of. I reviewed my rental agreement and did not see any mention of this. Also, they downgraded the car that I had prepaid for without notifying me.2.0 Poor

Pros:
The guys at the Williamson County Airport Hertz office couldn't have been nicer. I had paid for a full-size car, but they didn't have one available, so I had a free upgrade to an SUV. This office is only 10 minutes from my house. I felt the rate was very reasonable.Most popular agency | Enterprise Rent-A-Car |
